Sacar pecho

[poli]

I think it means to be proud. Am I right?

[Rusty]

That's one meaning, yes. It can also be to strut (your stuff), show off or brag.
Another meaning is to brave.

savar pecho, I haven´t heard that¨? only sacar probecho de algo.

I never have heard the word Sacar pecho at least as idioms, then I think that it could mean your stuff or other thing but, it never could be sacar pecho. Why do your country Sacar pecho mean show off your brag.

[Rusty]

Poli was asking about an idiomatic expression he found while reading. I told him he figured out the right meaning.
Perhaps sacar pecho isn't used in Mexico, but it is used. I found many hits for that expression on the Internet. And you'll find the expression in the RAE under sacar alguien pecho here (click on artículo enmendado button).

[sosia]

It's very normal in Spain.
I would try to find a proper photo/drawing.
It's the usual "chest-up" when a pretty woman pass by......

It can be a gsetual show off, but it can also mean to be brave, to be proud....
I need the whole sentence..
